SHOW YOUR SUPPORT IN This handmade bracelet, made with real horse hair and fine sterling silver accents, retails for $200.00 and has been made available to you at the special price of $140.00. The proceeds from this bracelet directly support the USHJA Foundation and the Horseman’s Assistance Fund, which provides urgent assistance to horses and equestrians in need. The USHJA Foundation was created to provide funding for educational programs, grants, scholarships, and research, as well as emergency assistance to those in need. This Foundation serves a broad base of equestrians who are members of the United States Hunter Jumper Association. These members include dedicated horsemen and horsewomen, equestrian-related organizations and horses. This year the Foundation has provided urgent relief to several USHJA members including: A long time equestrian with stage 4 lung cancer; an aspiring young professional who broke her back; and a braider unable to work due after receiving life-saving surgery. It’s only through donations and fundraising that the Foundation is able to continue its work in supporting those in urgent need and the needs of the industry as a whole. This Foundation also provides research grants, educational scholarships, and support for USHJA programs. The USHJA Foundation provides philanthropic equestrians and industry supporters with the ability to play an important role in the future of our sport. Each contributor to the Foundation will know they personally made a difference. With 90 cents of every dollar going directly to these important programs, the USHJA Foundation encourages every member, as well as all hunter/jumper enthusiasts, to help support the industry we all love. We ask you to help us in Making A Difference in our sport! To purchase your bracelet, contact the USHJA Foundation at 859.225.6707 or visit www.ushjafoundation.org
